MLB

The Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers are in agreement on a deal that will send shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa to the Twins for catcher Mitch Garver and right-hander Ronny Henriquez, sources familiar with the situation told ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

Kiner-Falefa, 26, hit .271 with eight home runs and 53 RBis last season. He also posted a career-high 20 stolen bases.

Kiner-Falefa has spent all four of his MLB seasons with the Rangers, batting .265 with 16 homers, 118 RBIs and 38 stolen bases.

The Rangers bolstered their middle infield during the offseason, signing shortstop Corey Seager ($325 million guaranteed) and second baseman Marcus Semien ($175 million) to long-term deals.

Garver, 31, hit .256 with 13 home runs and 34 RBIs last season.
